As parents, we may feel confused and anxious when the three-year-old baby begins to show his "rebellious" side and is no longer as obedient as before. But this is actually an important stage of children's growth. They began to form self-awareness and wanted to express their thoughts and wishes independently. This article will provide you with some clever guiding methods to help you better cope with your child's rebellious period.

Understanding is the key.

First of all, please be more patient and understanding. Children don't mean to target you, they are just trying to explore their own boundaries. Don't rush to criticize or punish at this time, but try to understand their behavior from their point of view.

Active communication

Communicate with children more and encourage them to express their feelings and thoughts. Ask them why they don't listen. Do you have any troubles or dissatisfaction? Through communication, you can better understand their needs and find better guidance.

Strengthen parent-child relationship

Spend more time with children, play with them, study with them and strengthen their emotional bond. A warm and harmonious family environment helps children grow up better and learn to cooperate.

Appropriate education

When children have bad behavior, they can be properly guided and educated. For example, tell them why certain behaviors are unacceptable and what is a better alternative. However, it should be noted that education is not to blame and punish, but to guide them to realize their mistakes with a gentle tone and attitude.

Encourage and affirm

Don't forget to give your child timely encouragement and affirmation. When they make the right choice or behavior, timely praise and reward will make them more confident and willing to cooperate.
